those used for on-site mixing of putties and polyputties, must have a cover with no visible gaps in place
at all times.
b. The work practice standard in paragraph (a)of this condition does not apply when material is being
manually added to or removed from a container,or when mixing or pumping equipment is being placed
in or removed from a container.
c. To demonstrate compliance with the work practice standard in paragraph (a) of this condition, the
Permittee must visually inspect all mixing containers subject to this standard at least once per month. The
inspection should ensure that all containers have covers with no visible gaps between the cover and the
container, or between the cover and equipment passing through the cover.
d. The Permittee must keep records of which mixing containers are subject to this standard and the results
of the inspections, including a description of any repairs or corrective actions taken.
4. 40 CFR 63.5734 Standards for Resin and Gel Coat Application Equipment Cleaning Operations
a. For routine flushing of resin and gel coat application equipment (e.g., spray guns,flowcoaters, brushes,
rollers, and squeegees), the Permittee must use a cleaning solvent that contains no more than 5 percent
organic HAP by weight. For removing cured resin or gel coat from application equipment, no organic
HAP content limit applies.
b. The Permittee must store organic HAP-containing solvents used for removing cured resin or gel coat in
containers with covers. The covers must have no visible gaps and must be in place at all times, except
when equipment to be cleaned is placed in or removed from the container. On containers with a capacity
greater than 7.6 liters, the distance from the top of the container to the solvent surface must be no less
than 0.75 times the diameter of the container. Containers that store organic HAP-containing solvents used
for removing cured resin or gel coat are exempt from the requirements of 40 CFR part 63, subpart T
(National Emission Standards for Halogenated Solvent Cleaning). Cured resin or gel coat means resin or
gel coat that has changed from a liquid to a solid.

Permit 07132T10
Page 27
13. 40 CFR 63.5758 Determine The Organic HAP Content Of Materials
a. Determine the organic HAP content for each material used. To determine the organic HAP content for
each material used in the Perm ittee's open molding resin and gel coat operations,carpet and fabric
adhesive operations, or aluminum recreational boat surface coating operations, the Permittee must use
one of the options in paragraphs (a)(i) through (vi) of this condition.
i. Method 311 (appendix A to 40 CFR part 63). The Permttee may use Method 311 for determining
the mass fraction of organic HAP. Use the procedures specified in paragraphs (a)(i)(A) and(B) of
this condition when determining organic HAP content by Method 311.
A. Include in the organic HAP total each organic HAP that is measured to be present at 0.1 percent
by mass or more for Occupational Safety and Health Administration(OSHA)-defined
carcinogens as specified in 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) and at 1.0 percent by mass or more for
other compounds. For example, if toluene(not an OSHA carcinogen) is measured to be 0.5
percent of the material by mass, the Permittee does not need to include it in the organic HAP
total.Express the mass fraction of each organic HAP the Permittee measures as a value truncated
to four places after the decimal point(for example, 0.1234).
B. Calculate the total organic HAP content in the test material by adding up the individual organic
HAP contents and truncating the result to three places after the decimal point(for example,
0.123).
ii. Method 24 (appendix A to 40 CFR part 63). The Permittee may use Method 24 to determine the
mass fraction of non-aqueous volatile matter of aluminum coatings and use that value as a substitute
for mass fraction of organic HAP.
iii. ASTM D1259-85 (Standard Test Method for Nonvolatile Content of Resins). The Permittee may
use ASTM D1259-85 (available for purchase from ASTM) to measure the mass fraction of volatile
matter of resins and gel coats for open molding operations and use that value as a substitute for mass
fraction of organic HAP.
iv. Alternative method. The Permittee may use an alternative test method for determining mass fraction
of organic HAP if the Permittee obtains prior approval by EPA Region IV. The Permittee must
follow the procedure in 40 CFR 63.7(f) to submit an alternative test method for approval.
v. Information from the supplier or manufacturer of the material. The Permittee may rely on
information other than that generated by the test methods specified in paragraphs (a)(i) through (iv)
of this condition, such as manufacturer's formulation data, according to paragraphs(a)(v)(A) and
(C) of this condition.
A. Include in the organic HAP total each organic HAP that is present at 0.1 percent by mass or
more for OSHA-defined carcinogens as specified in 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) and at 1.0 percent
by mass or more for other compounds. For example,if toluene(not an OSHA carcinogen) is 0.5
percent of the material by mass, the Permittee does not have to include it in the organic HAP
total.
B. If the organic HAP content is provided by the material supplier or manufacturer as a range, then
the Permittee must use the upper limit of the range for determining compliance. If a separate
measurement of the total organic HAP content using the methods specified in paragraphs (a)(i)
through (iv) of this condition exceeds the upper-limit of the range of the total organic HAP
content provided by the material supplier or manufacturer, then the Permittee must use the
measured organic HAP content to determine compliance.
C. If the organic HAP content is provided as a single value, the Permittee may assume the value is a
manufacturing target value and actual organic HAP content may vary from the target value. If a
separate measurement of the total organic HAP content using the methods specified in
paragraphs (a)(i) through (iv) of this condition is less than 2 percentage points higher than the
value for total organic HAP content provided by the material supplier or manufacturer, then the
Permittee may use the provided value to demonstrate compliance. If the measured total organic
Permit 07132T 10
Page 28
HAP content exceeds the provided value by 2 percentage points or more, then the Permittee must
use the measured organic HAP content to determine compliance.
vi. Solvent blends. Solvent blends may be listed as single components for some regulated materials in
certifications provided by manufacturers or suppliers. Solvent blends may contain organic HAP
which must be counted toward the total organic HAP content of the materials. When detailed
organic HAP content data for solvent blends are not available, the Permittee may use the values for
organic HAP content that are listed in Table 5 or 6 as contained in 40 CFR 63 subpart VVVV. The
Permittee may use Table 6 as contained in 40 CFR 63 subpart VVVV, only if the solvent blends in
the materials the Permittee use do not match any of the solvent blends in Table 5 as contained in 40
CFR 63 subpart VVVV, and the Permittee know only whether the blend is either aliphatic or
aromatic. However, if test results indicate higher values than those listed in Table 5 or 6 as
contained in 40 CFR 63 subpart VVVV, then the test results must be used for determining
compliance.
14. 40 CFR 63.5764 What Reports Must Be Submitted and When?
a. The Permittee must submit the applicable reports specified in paragraphs (b) through (c) of this
condition. To the extent possible, the Permittee must organize each report according to the operations

and July 30 of each calendar year for the preceding six-month period between January and June. All
instances of deviations from the requirements of this permit must be clearly identified.
iv. Each subsequent compliance report must be postmarked or delivered no later than 60 calendar days
after the end of the semiannual reporting period.
v. For each affected source that is subject to permitting regulations pursuant to 40 CFR part 70 or 71,
and if the permitting authority has established dates for submitting semiannual reports pursuant to 40
CFR 70.6(a)(3)(iii)(A)or 40 CFR 71.6(a)(3)(iii)(A), the Permittee may subunit the first and
subsequent compliance reports according to the dates the permitting authority has established
instead of according to the dates in paragraphs (b)(i) through (iv) of this condition.
c. The compliance report must include the information specified in paragraphs (c)(i) through (vii) of this
condition.

Emission compliance testing shall be by the procedures of Section .2600, except as may be otherwise
required in Rules .0524, .0912, .1110, .1111, or .1415 of Subchapter 2D. If emissions testing is required
by this permit or the DAQ or if the Permittee submits emissions testing to the DAQ to demonstrate
compliance,the Permittee shall perform such testing in accordance with 15A NCAC 2D .2600 and follow
the procedures outlined below:
1. The owner or operator of the source shall arrange for air emission testing protocols to be provided to
the Director prior-to air pollution testing. Testing protocols are not required to be pre-approved by
the Director prior to air pollution testing. The Director shall review air emission testing protocols for
pre-approval prior to testing if requested by the owner or operator at least 45 clays before conducting
the test.
2. Any person proposing to conduct an emissions test to demonstrate compliance with an applicable
standard shall notify the Director at least 15 days before beginning the test so that the Director may
at his option observe the test.
3. The owner or operator of the source shall arrange for controlling and measuring the production rates
during the period of air testing. The owner or operator of the source shall ensure that the equipment
or process being tested is operated at the production rate that best fulfills the purpose of the test. The
individual conducting the emission test shall describe the procedures used to obtain accurate process
data and include in the test report the average production rates determined during each testing
period.
4. Two copies of the final air emission test report shall be submitted to the Director not later than 30
days after sample collection unless otherwise specified in the specific conditions. The owner or
operator may request an extension to submit the final test report. The Director shall approve an
extension request if he finds that the extension request is a result of actions beyond the control of the
owner or operator.
a. The Director shall make the final determination regarding any testing procedure deviation and
the validity of the compliance test. The Director may:
(1) Allow deviations from a method specified under a rule in this Section if the owner or
operator of the source being tested demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Director that the
specified method is inappropriate for the source being tested.

Page 40
(2) Prescribe alternate test procedures on an individual basis when he finds that the alternative
method is necessary to secure more reliable test data.
(3) Prescribe or approve methods on an individual basis for sources or pollutants for which no
test method is specified in this Section if the methods can be demonstrated to determine
compliance of permitted emission sources or pollutants.
b. The Director may authorize the Division of Air Quality to conduct independent tests of any source
subject to a rule in this Subchapter to determine the compliance status of that source or to verify
any test data submitted relating to that source. Any test conducted by the Division of Air Quality
using the appropriate testing procedures described in Section 2D .2600 has precedence over all
other tests.
KK. Reopening for Cause [1 SA NCAC 2Q .0517]
1. A permit shall be reopened and revised under the following circumstances:
a. additional applicable requirements become applicable to a facility with remaining permit term of
three or more years;
b. additional requirements (including excess emission requirements) become applicable to a source
covered by Title IV;
c. the Director or EPA finds that the permit contains a material mistake or that inaccurate statements
were made in establishing the emissions standards or other terms or conditions of the permit; or
d. the Director or EPA determines that the permit must be revised or revoked to assure compliance
with the applicable requirements.
2. Any permit reopening shall be completed or a revised permit issued within 18 months after the
applicable requirement is promulgated. No reopening is required if the effective date of the
requirement is after the expiration of the permit term unless the term of the permit was extended
pursuant to 15A NCAC 2Q .0513(c).
3. Except for the state-enforceable only portion of the permit,the procedures set out in 15A NCAC 2Q
.0507, .0521, or .0522 shall be followed to reissue the permit. If the State-enforceable only portion of
the permit is reopened, the procedures in 15A NCAC 2Q .0300 shall be followed, The proceedings
shall affect only those parts of the permit for which cause to reopen exists.
4. The Director shall notify the Permittee at least 60 days in advance of the date that the permit is to be
reopened,except in cases of imminent threat to public health or safety the notification period may be
less than 60 days.
5. Within 90 clays,or 180 clays if the EPA extends the response period, after receiving notification from
the EPA that a permit needs to be terminated, modified,or revoked and reissued,the Director shall send
to the EPA a proposed determination of termination, modification,or revocation and reissuance,as
appropriate.
LL.Reporting Requirements for Non-Operating Equipment [15A NCAC 2Q .0508(i)(16)]

MM. Fugitive Dust Control Requirement[15A NCAC 2D .0540] - STATE ENFORCEABLE ONLY
As required by 15A NCAC 2D .0540 "Particulates from Fugitive Dust Emission Sources," the Permittee
shall not cause or allow fugitive dust emissions to cause or contribute to substantive complaints or excess
visible emissions beyond the property boundary.If substantive complaints or excessive fugitive dust
emissions from the facility are observed beyond the property boundaries for six minutes in any one hour
(using Reference Method 22 in 40 CFR, Appendix A), the owner or operator may be required to submit a
fugitive dust plan as described in 2D .0540(f).
"Fugitive dust emissions" means particulate matter fi-om process operations that does not pass through a
process stack or vent and that is generated within plant property boundaries from activities such as:
unloading and loading areas,process areas stockpiles, stock pile working,plant parking lots, and plant
roads(including access roads and haul roads).
NN.Specific Permit Modifications [15A NCAC 2Q.0501 and .0523]
1. For modifications made pursuant to 15A NCAC 2Q .0501(c)(2), the Permittee shall file a Title V Air
Quality Permit Application for the air emission source(s) and associated air pollution control
device(s) on or before 12 months after commencing operation.
2. For modifications made pursuant to 15A NCAC 2Q .0501(d)(2), the Permittee shall not begin
operation of the air emission source(s) and associated air pollution control device(s) until a Title V
